That's not going to happen... I would like to believe it would, however, the Bullingdon Boris Corporation (BBC), is a mouth peice. Even Ed Davey was accusing the BBC of bias yesterday.
There is a massive media bias in general because the hierarchy of all these organisations are top 5%er's, it's as simple as that really, Corbyn is going to take money from them, he's going to tax them, that's reason alone to back the Tories who have cut Corp Tax by 10% so they can all get fat bonuses each year due to the extra untaxed profits floating about at the top of these companies.
 
He could ask him why he employed Taki, a legit antisemite and racist, when at The Spectator. Of course, he'd be open to the response "Well, you still do", so he won't.

The right's concern trolling re: antisemitism is exposed for exactly that when they get on to the subject of George Soros.
The thing I find distasteful is many of the people screaming about anti semitism seem to be selective with their concern. They don't seem to hold the same disgust and offense when it is racism directed at other minority groups within the UK.

That said, any instance of Anti Semitism shouldn't be tolerated and I perfectly understand some Jewish concern regarding the rise of populism and Alt-right views globally and in the UK.

It is a problem that some can't seem to differentiate legitimate criticism of the policies of the Israeli Government with Israel as a state or Jewish people.

Equally, those citing every instance of criticism of Israel as an anti semitic act, especially non Jews, should be challenged because the current outcome seems to be creating division among the Jewish community in the UK and more broadly among different religious groups - pitting Muslims against Jews.

On both sides I've seen one opinion from a Jewish person projected as the opinion of all Jews and it's done not for a discussion about concerns but purely for political capital. It's incredibly dangerous.
 
... which is completely ineffective as he bombed himself first over anti-semitism.

Never known a leader of a political party be so uniquely capable of needlessly punching himself in the face time after time.

Just watching it now. Five mins in. It's painful.

Can't wait for Johnson's. Could be a bloodbath.
